production
The first rumors about an Eternals filming came up in April 2018. A month later, writers Matthew K. Firpo and Ryan Firpo were hired for the script. In September 2018, Variety finally announced that Chloé Zhao would direct the film. In the comics, the story of the Eternals takes place millions of years in the past, when the Celestials carried out genetic experiments on humans, creating on the one hand the more vicious Deviants and on the other hand the superpowered Eternals , which would have been at war over time.
In March 2019, the first rumors arose about a possible cast for the film. So remarked Kevin Feige , one may introduce the idea of a whole group to the audience how to do it once with the Guardians of the Galaxy would have done and did not want to imagine each character individually as before Marvel's The Avengers was the case. He added that the group's unfamiliarity made it possible to bring completely new stories to the screen, which could even span a period of tens of thousands of years. According to reports from That Hashtag Show , a Greek god would be one of the main characters in the film. The site also reported that Marvel is looking for cast members for the main characters Piper , Elysisus , Forgotton One , Ikaris , Makkari , Sersi , Starfox , Thena , Zuras and Karen and for the opponent Druig .

It was later reported that Angelina Jolie , Kumail Nanjiani , Richard Madden , Keanu Reeves , Salma Hayek and Millie Bobby Brown , among others , were in negotiations. In April 2019, Ma Dong-seok was hired for a role as yet unknown at the time. At the San Diego Comic-Con 2019, in addition to the release date in November 2020, the official cast and their roles were presented. In addition to the well-known Jolie, Madden, Hayek, Ma and Nanjiani , the cast also includes Brian Tyree Henry , Lauren Ridloff and Lia McHugh . For the role, Nanjiani trained his body for almost a year in preparation for the filming, and in the process changed his diet. Henry's character Phastos is said to be the first openly gay superhero in the MCU. His husband is played by Haaz Sleiman . Reports that Gemma Chan and Barry Keoghan were also part of the film were officially confirmed at D23 Expo in August 2019 along with the engagement of Kit Harington . Four months later, at the CCXP in December 2019, Feige revealed more details about the film. He announced that The Eternals would span a period of around 7,000 years, including the present, with "cosmic connotations" and show many different places at different times. Although the focus should be on the ten Eternals , their creators, the Celestials , and their evil counterpart, the Deviants , will also appear in the film. The latter should, however, differ significantly from their appearance in the comics. Furthermore, the first raw material was presented at the festival and it was emphasized that the film would “redefine and change” the MCU.
Filming began in the summer of 2019 under the working title Sack Lunch at Pinewood Studios near London . The cameraman is Ben Davis , who was previously responsible for the MCU films Captain Marvel and Guardians of the Galaxy . In mid-November 2019, the filming was relocated to Fuerteventura on the Canary Islands , where large sets in the style of the Babylonian Empire were set up. The filming locations are mainly in the south of the island, for example a valley near Buen Paso . At the beginning of November 2019, the film team, including Angelina Jolie and Richard Madden , had to be temporarily evacuated from the film set on the Spanish island after a non-exploded bomb was discovered on the premises and then defused. Several recordings were made in the Oxford University Museum of Natural History in January 2020 . Filming was completed at the beginning of February 2020.
The film was originally scheduled to hit German cinemas on November 5, 2020, and US cinemas the following day. In the course of the COVID-19 pandemic and the postponement of Black Widow to the November start date, the film is now set to hit German cinemas on February 11, 2021 and the US cinemas the following day.
